Sonos Move

I've only been buying Sonos products for about a year. I started off with a 5 and a pair of Sonos 1's. Both products have been super impressive. However, i wasn't quite prepared for just how good this Sonos Move is. I come from a music background (DJ/producer of 20+ years) so audio quality is something very very important to me and i'm super fussy. I've been using this in my garden for over a month now and it just fills my garden with wonderful sound, deep warm bass and clear mid-range and nice clean highs. Sit it on the ground in front of a wall, or in a corner and it will blow you away. A friend remarked that it was 'like having a club in your back garden'. Because the sound is so rich and full, you don't even need to have it up that loud, so it's perfect if like me you have neighbours close by. Everything I'd come to expect from a Sonos speaker is in the Move. It's genuinely brilliant. I've never heard sound as good as this in a portable speaker before. Yes it is on the expensive side, but i have to say it's been worth every penny so far. Pros: Sound quality (up there with Sonos 5). Portability - dead easy to move around, the handle is great. It's good and heavy though. Battery - 10 hours, recharges really quickly - the charging dock is super convenient Bluetooth - option to switch it over to Bluetooth if wifi an issue Integration with the rest of Sonos system is perfect - multi-room audio Wifi extender - can stream from Wifi a good distance from house Cons: There is only thing i can put here and it's not even to do with the speaker. The speaker can stream your audio up to 50m away from router (according to tests i've seen). However, your phone needs to be able to access the same router from 50m away if you want to access the Sonos app, as it needs wifi. This is more a limitation of the phone than Sonos. What i do is start my playlist in house and then take the speaker outside, it does some kind of buffering which means you can take it further away from you house and it never drops.

The Sonos Move is a superb speaker either on its own or as a multiform speaker part of the sonos network. This is a comparison with the bose portable home speaker which I also have. 1.SOUND. Sonos the sound is fantastic, bass is great, mids and highs also very good. it get very loud, there is an equaliser in the app, so you can adjust bass treble and loudness. Bose, sound is good, but I found the bass was too much even after adjusting it in the Bose music app. its also not as clear or loud as the Sonos. 2.BATTERY. I played the move at 50% volume and got 10hours and 37 minutes before it stopped playing that was when it got down to 5% on the app which I think must be a battery safeguard. Quite honestly if you were to play the move at anything above 70% then its way too loud for me. Even at 80% it does not distort.The BOSE speaker is got 9hours 25minutes on 50% volume and at 70-80% volume the bass completely ruined everything for me. 3.APPEARANCE AND PORTABILITY. both are good looking speakers the Bose is more portable because of the weight but the Sonos can be moved around quite easily. CONCLUSION. Its a no brainer for me if you want sound quality its the Sonos by a country mile, if you want portability then its the Bose. The Sonos can be paired with another move for stereo (expensive) the Bose cannot be paired for stereo. Post script. One con I have found is that the battery deletes if the speaker is not on its base ie From 100% overnight ton56% 14 hours later,will update on this. Added thoughts, Bluetooth has not been good keeps losing connection,sound also not as full as with internet connection. 8 months later and through lockdown this speaker still sounds outstanding. Battery life is good considering how often I’m 7using it. 9.5 out of ten.

The Sonos Move is an impressive portable speaker with a lot going for it. The sound quality is top-notch, offering rich bass and clear treble. It easily fills any room, and even outdoors, it holds up well, making it great for casual listening or small gatherings. I really like the design – it’s sleek and modern while still being rugged enough to handle the outdoors. The built-in handle is a nice touch, making it easy to carry around the house or outside. It’s a bit on the heavier side, but the portability is still a big plus. The connectivity options are also solid. The ability to switch between Wi-Fi and Bluetooth is smooth, and the setup was a breeze. I love that it integrates so well with the rest of my Sonos system when I’m at home, but also works just as easily when I’m on the go via Bluetooth. If I had one critique, it would be the battery life. While it’s decent for most situations, I feel it could last a bit longer, especially for outdoor use. It works fine for shorter outings, but I do find myself needing to charge it more often than expected. Overall, the Sonos Move offers fantastic sound, design, and ease of use, with just a little room for improvement on battery life.

Unschlagbarer Preis. Produkt ist wie beschrieben und funktioniert einwandfrei

Sehr schnelle und sichere Lieferung. Alles in Ordnung Super Sound!

Much better sound quality than expected, easy to set up (even though the instructions guide does not help much), versatile (you can use it with WiFi at home or with Bluetooth outside in the garden although it is somehwat heavy and it is not thought to walk with it anywhere), it has Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant built-in, battery life is fantastic, design is great. It is a bit expensive, so wait for a Black Friday offer (or similar).

Did not have a protective rubberised guard around it

This is exactly what we've been looking for. A decent portable, weatherproof speaker that connects to our current music services. Due to the larger size the sound is even better than the SONOS Play 1. Love the bluetooth function which means you can connect to the speaker when there's no wifi signal but the wifi extender tech means you can be quite a lot further from your router than most other devices and still access your music services. Great for the garden!!
